2021 AQA DT GCSE NEA Guide to Section E
This is the perfect resource for remote learning to get students enthused, confident and carrying on, with a high quality power point, with highly detailed guidance, examples and specialist technical knowledge, with relevant visuals and animations, YouTube tutorials, techniques and directed tasks to get them finishing off Section E!
This is an extremely comprehensive resource that covers this entire unit
Learning outcomes:
In this GCSE coursework task, Students will gain an understanding of:
How the mark scheme translates into chunked research tasks
The core and technical subject knowledge of section with strong emphasis on researching the correct tools, materials and equipment, as well as health and safety, quality control and relevance to their intended prototype manufacture
Two different pathways in representing the process of representing this intended manufacture: Either a more detailed manufacturing diary or a flowchart
How to present their final design concept, explaining its commercial viability and how it meets the requirements of their client.
How to consider viability of commercial manufacture, by comparing school vs. commercial industrial manufacturing processes, considering different scales of production in the process.
I have gone into an incredible level of detail on the manufacture processes, including:
Wasting processes, Sawing & jointing, Drilling, Turning , Polymer forming processes: Vacuum forming, Line bending , CAD CAM processes: Laser cutting, 3d printing, Metal processes: Casting, MIG welding, Soldering, Standard components and fixings, Knock down fittings, Fixings, Tensol glue, Epoxy resin, PVA glue, Finishes, Adding veneer, Painting with acrylic/stain/watercolour, and finally Varnishing. I also mention injection moulding and industrial processes.
This aspect of the power point alone makes this an invaluable resource for exam revision as it covers all the core specialist Technical knowledge aspects in the GCSE course.
Potential learning outcomes:
Next 4 - 5 slides/pages of NEA / Length – 3 - 5 lessons (including student activity)
This is the fifth part of my TES lessons dealing with the NEA that can be recorded on power point or paper, Please look to the resources here for section A (first two), section B and a combination section C/D unit/power point:

This is the perfect resource for remote learning. This will get students enthused, confident and carrying on independently, supported by a high quality power point, 1 and half hours of (private) YouTube tutorials, stunning visuals and animations, as well as relevant questions, techniques and directed tasks to get them finishing off Section C & D
This is an extremely comprehensive resource that covers 2 units.
Learning outcomes:
How the mark scheme translates into chunked creative tasks, including:
How to draw a really well annotated generated idea from section C, including scrap views and essential links back to Specification and Brief, discussing importance of clear annotation
How to draw rectangular prisms and ellipses in isometric projection, with a strong emphasis on rendering realistic textures to communicate information on choice of materials
How to go about the cardboard modelling aspect at home with recycled materials
How to develop design ideas of multifunctional prototypes on sketch up free – also how to create separate components such as drawers and even door knobs
How to draw orthographic projections of prototypes on sketch up free
How to draw exploded wireframe views of prototypes on sketch up free
How to draw cutting lists of prototypes on sketch up free and use MS Excel to create purchase lists
How to research relevant materials (components covered above) using tables and inspiration for testing the properties of materials
How to write a Manufacturing specification

6 lesson ‘all in one’ prepared resource for graphic design lessons - included are:
• Lesson 1: Draw Squares & circles freehand
• Lesson 2: Draw in Oblique and Isometric projection
• Lesson 3: Render 3-D forms using tone
• Lesson 4: How to use colour and rendering in 3-D
• Lesson 5: How to label and annotate a design
• Lesson 6: Learn about flight, design and make a glider
A fun and engaging project where students will learn the basic principles of design,explore imaginative and original ways of designing, then they will create an original graphic design product.
The powerpoints have detailed step by step instructions and a great quantity of visual examples for a project that should take between 6 and 8 lessons and differentiated booklets that can be used by subject specialists and non-D&T teachers alike, perfect for cover work as well.
If you found this resource useful, please leave a positive review :) Thanks
The rationale:
As D&T teachers return to school, we need a sit down/non-tool based project to start the students off, due to the Coronavirus.
This 6 x 1 hour lesson mini project is an ‘all in one’ prepared resource, containing lesson by lesson powerpoints and differentiated booklets that can be used by subject specialists and non-D&T teachers alike, perfect for cover work as well. The project ends with a sit down design and make lesson.
Powerpoints:
The project is driven by high end, attractive and informative power points, which have detailed instructions and notes, step-by-step animations, with starter, main and plenary activities, as well as home learning included.
